Where the Lights Come On: a poetry pamphlet by Rebecca Cooney, produced by Allographic Press
"Hey, is this your imagination?
Only I found it under your windowsill
and I know you don't recognise it,
but see here - these are your hopes
and this bit here?
This is where the lights come on."
In this debut pamphlet, Rebecca Cooney explores feminism, mental health, empire and friendship. She blends the political with the folkloric in a selection of poems which search for hope and accept that some days it's hard to find - but never lose faith in the power of storytelling and human connection to heal, liberate and transform. Expect shapeshifting women, impractical fairies, and beard appreciation.
"Poems that sidle up next to you and whisper mischievously of love, hope, and revolution. Rebecca Cooney's poetry is like that old friend that always wants the best for you, that wants to inspire you to action, and is always there in your corner with a kind word." Rick Dove
"Rebecca Cooney's poems are as captivating on the page as they are in live performance. She writes about mental health, gender and race with care and compassion. This is a glorious and moving collection of poems." Hannah Gordon
Allographic Press is delighted to present this debut collection taking readers on a compassionate journey through sadness, anger, and love... into hope.
